Sir Thomas Stood Before The Mogul, c1908, (c1920) - A Glimpse into Diplomatic History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in diplomatic history as Sir Thomas Roe stands before the powerful Mogul Emperor Jahangir in Agra, India. Painted by Joseph Ratcliffe Skelton around 1908 and later printed in the 1920s, this artwork offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of colonial diplomacy during the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods. Sir Thomas Roe, an English diplomat from the early 17th century, was appointed as Great Britain's first ambassador to India. His primary mission was to secure protection for the East India Company's factory at Surat. In this image, we witness him standing confidently amidst a grand audience hall within Jahangir's palace while seeking favor from one of history's most influential rulers. The composition beautifully portrays both cultural exchange and power dynamics between two great nations. The regal architecture surrounding them symbolizes England's growing influence on Indian soil during that time. As we observe Sir Thomas Roe presenting himself respectfully before Emperor Jahangir, it becomes evident that diplomacy played a crucial role in shaping relationships between empires. Through this historical photograph print from H. E. Marshall's book "Our Empire Story" we are transported back to an era where international relations were forged through personal encounters and negotiations rather than modern means of communication. It serves as a reminder of how past events have shaped our present world and invites us to reflect upon the complexities of colonialism and its impact on both countries involved.
